Mike Tyson is back in the saddle again. Despite being in his 50s, the fighter — known as “Iron Mike” — agreed to go head to head with social media star Jake Paul. The duo’s 30-year age gap made headlines, with many questioning how Mike would be able to defeat his younger and taller opponent. So, how tall is Mike, and how does his height compare to that of Jake’s?
One day before Jake and Mike’s scheduled fight, the two got into a brief scuffle during their weigh-in. For some reason, Mike slapped Jake and walked away without an explanation. However, Jake made sure to call him out.
“He’s angry,” Jake told the crowd and the moderator. “He’s an angry little elf. Mike Tyson, I thought that was a cute slap, buddy, but tomorrow, you’re getting knocked the f**k out.”
Jake then grabbed the microphone and yelled he’d be “f**king him up” and claimed that Tyson “hits like a bitch.”
“It’s personal now!” Jake shouted. “He must die.”
